Third shave with a straight
Well fellas, three down. Tonight I managed dang near my whole mug with minimal touchup with the DE. Deliberate thoughtful stropping, deliberate thoughtful shaving, I think I might be getting the hang of this! Again, many thanks for the great info and the clearly solid community.

Well on your way. Now's the time you need to be a little careful. Just when you think it's going easy it can jump up and bite.
Keep your concentration high and your angles low!
Despite the high cost of living, it's still very popular.

Congratulations! I'll bet you're being ultra careful at the moment. Once you get to about 20 shaves, then you'll be feeling pretty confident and relax a little... that's when accidents happen! Good luck!

Just don't get cocky and tell your wife, "Look hon, no hands."
